NHTSA takes Steps to advance Safety in Crashes involving Passenger Vehicles, Trucks and TrailersThe National Highway Traffic Safety Administration named the members of its Advisory Committee on Underride Protection, which will make recommendations to the Secretary of Transportation on safety regulations related to underride crashes that have caused severe injury and death. NHTSA is also publishing an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to consider requirements for side underride guards.

Higher Point of Impact makes SUV Crashes more Dangerous for CyclistsSUVs cause more severe injuries than cars when they hit bicyclists likely because the vehicles' tall front ends strike the bicyclists higher on their bodies, a new study from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety shows. "SUVs tend to knock riders down, where they can also be run over, rather than vaulting them onto the hood of the vehicle," said IIHS Statistician Sam Monfort, the lead author of the study. "That's probably because the higher front end of an SUV strikes the cyclist above their center of gravity."

AVL and AIT cooperate: Highly Automated Automotive Cyber Security Software for Threat Analysis and Risk AssessmentAIT and AVL announced a partnership to provide the industry with automated cybersecurity threat and risk analysis based on ISO/SAE 21434 as an integrated software solution. As the volume and complexity of software in vehicles, often referred to as the "data center on wheels," increases, so do the attack surfaces for cyberattacks in the automotive market. UNECE WP.29 R155 and the ISO/SAE 21434 standard require OEMs and their supply chain to implement and certify a Cyber Security Management System (CSMS).

Ask an automotive engineer the same question, and the response will be much more complex. From the hum of wind passing a side mirror to the enhanced acceleration of an electric vehicle, the many sounds a car makes are critical to the overall driving experience. To design, identify and optimize automotive sounds, engineers rely on a field called NVH.

There's no single reason crashes occur and no single way to protect people from death and injury. When we discuss a given solution - whether it s in the realm of vehicle technology, road design or enforcement - we are usually talking about shaving off a few hundred fatalities from the annual toll at best. But recent action by Congress opens the door to something much bigger. If we seize this opportunity, we could put an end to one of the most persistent highway safety problems - impaired driving - and prevent more than 9,000 deaths a year.
